Parshas Matos

In this week’s Parsha we learn about purifying utensils that had been used for non-kosher food.  The first step is to clean it thoroughly.  Following that would depend on how the item is used, if it was used with water, it gets immersed in water, if fire was the primary user than it would get immersed in fire.  We can learn from this how to purify our own souls, the first step is to cleanse it of sins, by stopping committing them.  Following that we must see how we go after sin, if we have a burning desire like fire for sin, we must try to develop that same lust for mitzvos.  The best way to do so is by the Torah, we should strengthen our connection to the Torah by learning more ourselves and attaching ourselves to those who do.
